Urban Carry, anyone?

[meketrefe]

I was looking at yet another holster for deeper concealment. Yes, I know..like we do not have enough holsters already.

Anyone has tried the urban carry?

Any options would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Interesting. You're going to really have to practice drawing. Even the actors drawing seemed to have a little issue if their shirt wasn't tucked in. None of them had untucked shirts that were long at all. I'd be interested to see how the draw would be with an untucked shirt that is the length that most of us wear.

I dont really see an advantage over a good IWB holster. I prefer an easy one handed draw.

I would love to try to carry appendix but my jeans are always on the fit side. Can't stand loose clothing so I have no choice but to carry OWB

I too was intrigued by this holster, but I saw some reviews on it. It seems viable, but it prints noticeably through the pants, very much so when seated.

Hmmm....penis shaped pistol?

Self defense and false advertisement, all rolled into one!

You probably wouldn't even have to shoot! Your attacker would be incapacitated laughing his ass off!

Oooo, is that a Desert Eagle in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?!

Seems like a cool idea, could turn out to be complicated. I like the Versacarry for my deep concealment.

Looks like it would be impossible to draw from a seated position.

Good point and on the side would be akward. The same happens with pocket pistols and holsters. I should clarify this is for specific situations and clothes and not the primary carry method.

The other reason I don't like it is you have to present the firearm before you have a grip on the gun. I feel better holding the gun before it is clearly visible. You need every advantage you can get.

It's a gimmick in my opinion. Years ago they had the Pager Pal. Same concept.

More like a Derringer

I bought one, I like it. I wear it all the time, even in a gun free zone and no one has a clue.
It works as advertised. If you are determined to be a quick draw artist you can practice with it.
I have carried a full size 1911 down to a Walther PPK. It is now part of the stable of the dozens of other holsters that I have.

yes. That is what I am talking bout. I have other nice holsters but sometimes I pocket carry when going to a party where I have specific clothes
like a tuxedo. Then those pockets are too small for pistols I can carry in the jeans pockets w/o problems yet the pants have plenty of room for
concealing using this make shift pocket /holster. Or sometimes in summer clothes where the pocket might be too lose.
The PPK is a very nice gun. I have a SIG and a a Shield and ended up sticking to the shield just because I have been very accurate with it and it
just feels right ...and very reliable so far. The sig is smaller but it is heavier but the shield also carries nicely so it should work fine with this
type of holster for those clothes / occasions, don't you think?
I used to buy holsters like candy and I have given many away so now I prefer and see what people are saying, specially those who have used it like you.

If you do try it, be sure and get more than a slip on clip that goes over the belt. I have dumped my S&W 340PD a few times because my body structure (a bit overweight) actually pushed the holster clip right over the belt.

Luckily no shit hemorrhages on the part of anyone in the immediate AO - probably never saw it since it was picked up milliseconds after I felt it exit - stage down!

Don't feel bad. I'm sure you're not the first I'm sure you won't be the last and I'm in that same club. It happens to just about everyone carries a gun at least once-in-a-lifetime.

Actually, there is no clip. There is a loop that the belt goes through and the the belt goes through the loop on your pants and then back through the holster. I also bought one of their gun belts as my Desantis was wearing out. I love the quality of their belt too.

Just saw a video on youtube - looks like they added a strong magnet to the holster to keep firearm in place and prevent it flopping out until you actually draw it. Seems like a reasonable option to add to stable of holsters

this holster could loose a woman a lot of dates!

I've been wondering, since this is not a rigid, fitted holster how much protection for the trigger is present? Is there an chance that a fold of leather or an ouside object pressing from outside can depress the trigger? I would much prefer a rigid, fitted design though I like the concept, even if I don't think it's for me.

They have a bunch of these down at Lock-n-Load in Owego, for those in the Broome/Tioga area who want to try 'em. The guy who always seems to be behind the counter is always wearing one, he loves it.

I figure I'll buy one someday. Just another option to help address the varying day-to-day carry needs.

No thanks. In fact, HELL NO.

No thanks. In fact, HELL NO.

I'm with you....my thoughts exactly

 

[capitalcrew]

I go back and forth on these. I would still like to try one. I only have one good holster and is not as comfortable as I would like

 

[Haunt]

I was interested on one of these. I went against it because I wear my belt fairly tight... to hold my pants up. I can't imagine wrestling the pistol out from behind a tight belt. Here is a DIY hack of this holster:

Love this works on moss 500 too .. LOL ..
